...you mention you play but nothing about the results long-term, if you can call 3 months long-term.

Conventional wisdom says it's dumb to have a "stop win" type of rule if you are beating the game.

But ... maybe your individual temperament is driving the results.

If this is the case, it's likely the limit you set for winning is in sync with your temperament, ability, risk tolerance etc.

Not everyone that can beat a game can beat it for 6,8,10 hours. Perhaps your ideal period of play is the first 1-2 hours.

Try some experimentation. To test if this is about you (and not about them READING you) after a few hours of play, consider walking away for 2 hours and coming back "fresh" after a meal or some kind of break.

Say the same players are still there.

If it has something to do with the other players reading you , likely the results will be bad.

But if it is about you and your temperament etc, the results might look good. Then you can repeat that pattern to determine what makes the good pattern go.
